My dad served this country like you.. he died in 1992 of cancer, so he never lived long enough to see any of what happened. 

Honestly, if he was alive all this would have killed him to see.. so as for all the ones who died without seeing this, perhaps it's a good thing, even though their lives were cut short, way too short.. maybe sometimes we should see it as God spared them this horrible thing. 

It's just another way to look at it any way.. sometimes it helps me some.

A Big Shout Out to all who served...  

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE!  I SALUTE YOU!  

Same as Grace, my father served in the Royal Navy during WWII and I know that
the only reason I can type this here today is because of what he and the rest of
the brave men and women did.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Veterans, Thank You, My husband served and He Like You, Loves Our Country and Respects and Loves You All!
